...why this site is soooooooooooooo slow? It's one of the worst I ever go to. I want to use it but when its buffering all the time you do start to lose interest.

Site is no probs for my pc. I'd stay clear of crome it seems fast by making evrything else slow once it is on your pc alonside other progrmes. I hate it. do try a speed test at speed >test.net<

It's you not the site, no probs here, although it is a bandwidth hungry site, thanks to all the advertisements and images!

Have you tried "refreshing" when it's not responding, what happens?

Same speed on both for me, don't find chrome any quicker and it often fails
